Timing starting of HRT

2 replies

I'm about to start HRT for peri symptoms - estrogen patches and progesterone tablets for 14 days. I'm currently on holiday and will collect prescription when I'm back. My periods are still fairly regular and don't want to mess them up. Will be getting back about 10 days before next period is due. Should I wait until next period starts to take the estrogen then take the progesterone 14 days in, or can I start all of it together straight away?

Thanks I think I'll play it safe and for the sake of waiting a week start the first day of my next period with the patches, then take the progesterone tabs after 14 days for 14 days.
